The Pilgrims and the Shining City on the Hill

My recent research project has taken me into journals and correspondence of some of the early Pilgrim colonists of Massachusetts. The more I read about these people's values and activities, the more I respect them. They were intelligent and hard-working, and they valued education very highly. Their religious beliefs eventually evolved into the founding principles of the American Revolution.  



Happy Thanksgiving to All!
